Have you got "great attention to detail" as one of your strengths in your CV?😉
I do actually 😀

People that say London is rubbish. It's not, it's a great place to visit and live.

Got a bottle of London pride for £4.50 in the O2 last night, which I thought very reasonable.
I paid double when I went into the arena itself mind.

Stinging nettles. They were an occupational hazard when I was a boy, the ball used to get buried in them and require retrieval or big boys would throw you in there, all part of being a kid in a Devon village. Have any of you been stung lately? I did yesterday on my legs, arms and hands and jeez I can still feel it today.

Vicious bastards and I'm of the opinion they sting worse than they used to.

Dock leaves, mate. Sure fire cure.

Old wives tale. I know, I've been there.

Yep the feckers got me yesterday as I pulled out some weeds. Did not see the buggers hiding in between. Should have had my gardening gloves on.
Stung for about 2 hours and no dock leaves about 😥

Bleddy ants in the office and cannot see where the feckers are getting in.
